Aug 23 2007Lindsay Lohan gets one day in jail

First!!!

Justice. Riiiiiiiiight.

Have a good look around during your one day, LL. You'll be baaaaaaack.

Once you can fake sincerity you've got it made.

LL is lying through her teeth, as she always does.

I'm glad she got off so light. She's young and talented, not old and bitter like, say, people who hit the "Post Your Comment" button all day. Go Lindsay!!!

All Robert Downey Jr. did was take a nap in a strangers' bed and had to do a year. Doherty probably thinks the USA is like all those horror stories one hears about the Midnight Express

OMG!!! you know if she wasnt "famous" she would have gotten the coke charges & the DUI charges, which should have been a minimum of at least 6 months.... our legal system is seriously fucked up. if i was the judge, i wouldnt have cut her sentence in half, or credited her the time she was arrested. SHE WAS DRIVING DRUNK & HAD COCAINE ON HER!!!!!! yes, she has a problem, but that shouldnt be an excuse. the "normal" coke-whores who get picked up or other drunk drivers, or those who do both dont just get 1 day & 10 of community service. fucking idiots. & not to mention that this was her second offense, so that should have added another 6 months to a year to her 6 month sentence

the only good thing about this is.... you know it pissed Paris off. hahahahaha

I hope somebody's been patiently planning a riot on that day, and that Lindsey gets killed amidst the chaos.

Well, I guess the skank was right when she said "I'm a celebrity and I can do whatever I want."

You know Dina is relieved, now she can go back to sponging off her daughter and "living the American Dream".

Skanks, both of them.

What a pile of shit!!!! The dumb bitch is busted twice for dui and get one FUCKING day. I can't wait to hear MADD's reaction to this

she obviously didn't write that, her PR or whatever did

LOL #7- At least we know we'll only get a day for drunk driving while blitzed on blow... see ya later guys... my line's waiting on me...woooohooooo

#3

she's an actress.

Man that reeks of damage control. That chick's not articulate enough to pull off a speach like that on her own. I'm sick of her butt ugly face and bullshit lies. I've resisted reading anything about her since she got arrested, but was curious about the one day jail sentence. I thought it was a joke. Put this skank along with Paris and Nicole Ritchie into the next shuttle launch and send them off to the nearest galaxy with no return function. The world would be better off.

What does it matter anyway? She is BOX OFFICE POISON. Her last 5 movies have bombed. She is by no means a star.

Rich and famous folks come here, read the latest round of outraged comments of the nobodies ("One day?!? That's unbelievable! Where's the justice? I would have been sentenced to one year!")...and laugh...and laugh...and laugh...It's fucking great to be rich.

no, i think the world would be better off without the rapists and terrorists.

@12 no kidding. I may as well down a case and plow into the tree in my apartment buildings front yard every weekend. The punichment will apparently be less than the cab ride anyway.

That apology wasn't adequite.

Seems like money is valued over justice and truth now..This world is going to hell in a hand basket..seriously.

hope she gets raped while she's in there that'll set her straight

#19 LOL

It's all about the blonde hair

And that's such BULLSHIT!!! I got a dui when I was like 19 and they made me do 2 days in the orage vest with other real criminals on top of the night in jail, the fines and the 6 months alkie school, PLUS suspended my license for a fracking year. That was in CA too! GAWD she's such a betch...

Twits, all of you. It's simple - you don't have enough jail cells. That's because you decided to lock up so many of your black male citizens (10% overall, 20% for ages 20-30). I'm guessing you decided lynching would bring bad press? Too bad, then you would have had enough cells to house all the truly dangerous criminals and keep them off the streets, instead of being forced to give murderers and rapists early paroles. Anyway, it doesn't leave much room for other offenders, especially young white girls. Which is a good thing, because then your old white judges can smile and get a tiny, remembrance-of-things-past hardon under their robes when they make the young white girls blushingly happy with a 1-day sentence. Smoochy-smoochy-smoochy!

"Best system in the world" -ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!

Your on the wrong page for your BS propaganda. Right, I'm sure there's a conspiracy theory to lock up as many black men as possible. Nothing to do with the crimes they are committing. I can buy it's a social issue or the problems are deeper rooted than color but the conspiracy theory? Please. Makes you sound like an ignorant stupid ass looking for excuses. Let me guess, the CIA drops drugs in the ghettos, right? Must be nice to always have a crutch for why your life sucks. Dumb fuck.

I think the prison overcrowding is more the 'drug war' thing than a race thing. In 1970, about 16% of Federal incarcerations were drug-related. In 2002, it was 54.7%. If we legalized drugs, we'd empty half the cells in the federal pen.

i hate it when americans feel they have to thank god for blind stupid luck.

YOU CANNOT PETITION THE LORD WITH PRAYER - jim morrison.

Celebrity Justice rules. I definitely need to visit the library and borrow the book of laws that they are judged on tho...yeah that'll be cool reading.

who am I kidding..there won't be words in it..just a bunch of pictures and stuff and bodies under cars and stick figures with big boobs on a cell phone behind the wheel.

Well, I got WAY more than this for my DUI. Straightforward, .12, no drugs, no accident, no priors.

So on one hand I'm pissed, but on the other, it must REALLY piss of Parasite Hilton.

Speaking of grateful, we can all be grateful that krazihotkelli is dead. Or at least AWOL.

PS maxsolomon u suck

Of course the sentence is not just. There's no consistency in judges or sentencing. One of the worst problems with our court system. Depending on the judge, a child rapist might get off with probation while a man who does a "hit and run" on a dog, no substance abuse involved, just a mistake, and a DOG, can go to prison. (The former is often on the news, the latter happened to a guy I know of.) It's utterly stupid and completely unfair regardless of fame.

I don't know if LL is sincere or lying. Probably lying? Time will tell. But if she's sincere, I wish her the best, and I hope she can turn her life around. I love to make fun of these hollywood morons, but I won't step on her if she's really trying to improve.

I hope I get raped soon, because I like it, especially when it's a black man with 12 inches. If any of you are black, with 12 inches, and you want to rape a stupid little bitch like me, will you contact me?

I'm the REAL Goodman, and I approve this mesage!

Why is it that every time I look at her mouth, I get an uncontrollable urge to take a massive piss? Like a knocking-enamel-off-the-urinal, just-drank-a-case-of-Miller-High-Life velocity piss?

Lee Baca will probably let her out after 15 minutes.

I bet her cooter smells like altoids and my dead angelfish that I buried in my flower garden today.

With a little bit of eau de dog feces, as well.

will someone just put her away forever

the litte bitch get fuck in jail ha ha,

haha, wtf... only one day? well that's meaningful

dont worry guys....36 months probation, lol. she'll total her car drunk at least 4 more times in that time period

dont worry guys....36 months probation, lol. she'll total her car drunk at least 4 more times in that time period

Can anybody explain why charges were never filed for her first DUI until now? She got arrested, went through rehab, got out, got another DUI went back to rehab and still no charges filed until now?

Well here's the thing, Paris didnt do any time until she violated probation...Linday just started probation today....so if she screws up again in the next 3 years she will do time.

she'll be back...what a tool

Lindsay Lohan picsssssssss...

Hahahah...now Nicole Richie checks herself into jail to serve her time....

...and gets out in about 30 minutes. Ahh, Los Angeles, Land of Justice. Don't break the law here boys and girls or else there is 20 minutes of hard time in store for you.

http://sithomeandrot.com/celebs/2007/08/23/justice-schmustice-nicole-richie-edition/

Yes but what is the judge going to do about the HERPES COVERING HER FACE AND SHOULDERS.

"No matter what I said when I was under the influence on the day I was arrested, I am not blaming anyone else for my conduct other than myself."

So were they her fucking jeans or not- I'm so confused

#45, nahhhhhh.....only if yer famous!!!
Get a parking ticket there and they send you to prison if yer a nobody.

The only reason she got off light is that I gave her my get out of jail free card from my Celebrity Monopoly game. She owes me big time!!!!!

ONE FUCKING DAY IN JAIL?!? Seriously, that's not nearly enough time to adequately sample the local talent ( or be sampled, in my case ). I mean, why bother getting all sexed up by the mens when you will probably be released after 20 minutes anyway?

The drug war thing IS a race thing.

Crack is a black drug, powder cocaine is a white drug. Current policy generates a 100 to 1 penalty ratio for crack-related offenses. For instance, distribution of only 5 grams of crack cocaine (about a thimble full) yields a 5 year mandatory minimum sentence. It takes 500 grams of powder cocaine, however, to prompt the same sentence. Crack cocaine is also the only drug for which the first offense of simple possession can trigger a 5 year mandatory minimum sentence. Simple possession of any quantity of any other substance by a first time offender – including powder cocaine – is a misdemeanor offense punishable by a maximum of one year in prison. Crack is the only drug for which the first offense of simple possession triggers a federal mandatory minimum sentence (possession of 5 grams of crack will trigger a 5 year mandatory minimum sentence).

That's why there are so many blacks in prison. Federal laws were written specifically to lock up low-level street dealers (mostly black) for an average of 10 years, more than twice as long as rapists. Users and dealers of powder cocaine continue to be prosecuted under much more lenient standards, as shown by Lindsay's case. If she had crack cocaine in her pocket, she'd be doing real time. But what are the odds that middle- or upper-class white kids are walking around with crack (not powder cocaine) in their pockets? Enough with the outrage about Lindsay's case - you all voted for the people who make and enforce these laws, probably because they said the drug addiction problem needed a "war" mentality. It's war, all right - class and race.

Rich people ain't like you and me. They's special. They's diffrnt rules fer them folk.

Well, we know one thing for sure: She had nothing to do with that apology. All of the words are spelled correctly.

We have to do SOMETHING to get the blacks off the street!

Someone needs to tell Lindsay that "no contest" and "guilty" are two different things

#54 & 51, you serious? Or do I need to end you

I got no problem with homicide

#55, actually I work at a law office. It is the same thing

well, looks like there's only 24 hours of hardcore butch ass carpet raping to get done. hope her cell-mate doesn't have braces.

When did telling the truth become an "endable" offense? And also, isn't this site in part about making outrageous comments and seeing what kind of fools respond?

She is so dead. Well, unless she ends up in jail, she's dead.

make that "hardcore butch ass RED-carpet raping"

I have never seen her speak so clearly and fluently in my whole life

Shit yeah, it made a huge difference that Lindsay had a little powder in her pocket, and not crack. Multiple DUIs are a different matter, but nobody should be surprised about the lack of punishment for a lil' packet of powder. The zero-tolerance psycho states are different, but in most places the older laws haven't been changed and you're looking at a misdemeanor (maybe) unless you have a full baggie of something. In the good old days, the cops would just take your drugs away (for personal use or resale) and let you off with a warning if you had no priors. But then there was the crack "epidemic" followed inevitably by a "war" on it. Just like in Iraq, it helps enormously when the enemy's skin is dark.

You guys bore me.
Chicken pot chicken pot chicken pot pie!!!!

that's just pathetic, A DAY. I thought stupid Paris got off lightly, but this is tragic. Where's the funkin justice? I don't believe any of this self destructive crowd actually understand the concept of REHABILITATION, its just someplace nice to hang out until the heat dies down. Bunch of funkin (future) crack ho's.

This pisses me off to the highest degree. People that laugh at those paying attention to pop culture they need to take a look at the reality--reckless whores like this get the red carpet while at the same time influence a new generation of impressionable children to think that their actions will never have consequence.

I will rejoice when this trainwreck gets her just desserts. She better stay the fuck out of cities other than Los Angeles and NYC.

#51: Does the name WHITNEY (CRACK WHORE) HOUSTON ring a bell?

#25? "Across the Pond"? Politely go fuck yourself. Your justice system is as fucked as ours. Why is Pete Doherty still walking the streets? And more importantly, why can't Lindsay and Pete have a good ol' romp? I wish they'd get fucked together, catch each other's VD and die in a pile of ammoniatic flopsweat.

Jesus, now i hear that Nicole Richie spent like 45 minutes in jail when she was supposed to serve four days. What the fuck is going on with the California court system?? They obviously do not know the meaning of the word minimum. Look it up fellas. It means the least possible under the law. Its like the judges for LL and Nicole's cases look at the law books and just see the pretty pictures and say 'oh fuck it, let her out, she wont do it again, she promised.'

This is the BULLSHIT of ALL BULLSHIT!!!!

Drugs aren't this bitch's problem. Her problem is simply this: she can't drive. She lacks the mental capacity to operate a moving vehicle. She's what, 21? 14 yr olds drive better on these Kansas backroads. Instead of fining her or throwing her in jail or whatever they need to put her back in kindergarten and teach her some basic motor skills.

I cant believe that bitch got one day and community service for all the shit she did and Paris got like 23 or something for only driving on a suspended license!

yeah the bag barely had anythin cuz she had already snorted most of it jeez wtf

btw i think everyone forgot her 1st dui was when she was UNDERAGE. i dont even care abt the coke, but 2 DUI's THO???? thats endangering peoples fucking lives. anyone else would have the book thrown at them

I think it's a brave thing for Lindsay to completely tell the truth and admit that she's addicted to drugs and alcohol. That's a big step for ANYBODY to admit publicly, so I applaud her for it. Plus, that's exactly what the law wanted, was for one of these high-profile celebrity chicks to cough up the truth about the true extent of their substance abuse, so she made the right move by giving the L.A. courts exactly what they wanted.

I just hope she gets a grip on herself enough to NEVER get busted again. If she's intoxicated somewhere, she has to get a cab, and if she's buzzed at home she has to take a cab from home. Also, she has to be street-smart enough to NEVER carry drugs on her in public or in a vehicle again. If she does have a relapse, she needs to NEVER drive or leave the house with drugs in her purse or on her person. THE LAW GIVES ONLY ONE SECOND CHANCE!!! The next time she gets busted, she'll probably get a year in L.A. county jail in the general population. They did it to Little Kim, they'll do it to her.

The last time I was in court in L.A., the judge came out in his spooky black robe and there were two hot blond court clerk chicks in matching blood-red oufits, and I suddenly had a frightening revelation that it was like I was appearing before the devil and his demons and I was standing at the very gates of Hell. The courts have the power to destroy your life, and I think they secretly enjoy sending people to jail, so if you give them the opportunity, they will eagerly send you to Hell. Lindsay must NEVER get busted again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A TWO-TIERED justice system.
Fuck all this; if I scream -revolution- then my ISP will get tracked.
Fight now.

@64, go take your whining crybaby 'war against dark people' BS somewhere else.

I'd like to keep her in my jail, and play connect the dots with my spunk.
Dot, dot, spurt, dot, dot, spurt...

Why do they keep showing this woman. She is not remotely attractive or interesting. She can't even get the "slut thing," right.

It takes like 30 seconds to a minute to load and you can't move the mouse cursor or anything else with the computer until it finishes loading. I think I will stop coming here until you fix it

#51 the laws for crack possesion and distribution are much tougher because when crack was introduced in the 80's it brought with it a wave of violence that scared the fuck out of the government. Hence the tougher penalties.Call it class and race all you want but in reality anyone with half a brain knows it's not the middle class, part time "powder" cocaine user that's breaking into your home or hooking to feed thier nasty habit. Lindsay may be a coke head who shouldn't be driving but I haven't seen her involved with to many drive-by's (yet) Besides, an ffective way to reduce the number of minorities in prison would be to have them commit less crimes don't ya think?

She totally did not write that. It is way too coherent and there aren't any spelling errors.

#4 " young and talented"? Holy fuck that's the funniest comment I've read all day. Good one Veggi.

58 No Contest and Guilty are not the same thing. No Contest plea does not admit to anything. if you work at a law office, I hope you arent practicing criminal law. Its scary the morons that work in law offices.

I hope that during that one day, one of the inmates beats the piss out of her. I know it's only a fantasy because she'll probably have her own cell and be segregated from everyone else, but still. A person can DREAM.

85 - The violence was probably already there, the government just had a new scapegoat to attach to it.

82, not 85, sorry. But since I've got 85's attention, I was under the impression pleading "no contest" is similar to pleading guilty, the only difference being that instead of saying, "I did it," you're saying, "I don't have the evidence to prove that I didn't do it." And you go through all the same motions: sentencing, probation, classes, and whatnot.

Celebrity Justice at its finest......

Poor little rich girl.....

.

Wow, I actually give her credit for taking responsibility and not blaming anyone else. I still think she's a nasty tramp, but at least she's an honest nasty tramp.

Much as I want to burn the witch, jail is never a solution for drug addicts. Now blatant scofflaws, yes and no matter what she is a blatant scofflaw. Never in my entire drug-addled days did I ever drive high, jump a subway turnstile, beat up an old lady for coke money or rob something from a store, so ....

I don't know what is up here, but one thing's for sure, the court told her
"not to associate with people with controlled substances." Well, then she needs to NOT ASSOCIATE WITH HER MOM. She's already a veterana of drugs and there's no hope for her.

Lindsay, fire your mom and stay AWAYYYYYYYYY from her.

How can it be a minimum 4 day sentence when the stupid judge cuts it in half?
I hope she hits him next time.

Another example that shows the world just how fucked up America is.

If you have a fancy lawyer, you can negotiate your way out of anything unless it's murder or anything armed. It's just the way this country works. Well, unless you live in Texass.

wow, my dad got 2 1/2 YEARS for getting caught with cocaine...so much for justice

#58, I'm an attorney. Guilty and "no contest" are NOT the same thing. They result in the same outcome but are technically different.

Christian is absolutely correct. Pleading no contest is not accepting responsibility for actions. In fact, it is exactly the opposite. It is accepting the punishment without admitting guilt.

I wonder how much time "the Black guy" will get? You know, the one she said was actually doing the driving. The one all you yanks said was an obvious liar when he claimed LL was the one driving. COME ON, you remember...all of you Yanks began showing your true "colors" -- basically stating that the Black guy HAD to be lying because, well he's black. And a few of you even indicated that even if she was lying, it ws only natural that she would pick him out of the bunch to pin it on because...well, he's black. THAT black guy. Oh, that's right -- she has now admitted she was lying and has apologized (sort-of). How about the rest of you?
I've been here a few years, but to those of you still on the other side of the pond, their laws may have changed to prevent them from acting on their bigotted instincts over here, but for the most part, their attitudes are about the same as they ever were - anyone darker than a sun-tanned white isn't worthy of equal treatment.

***I very much want to be healthy and gain control of my life and career and have asked for medical help in doing so***

Oh ok .. well that would mean DISassociating yourself with ALL of your friends and your parents. Weren't they all around when you fucked up the last 3 times?... Uh huh. Were they supportive in helping you to gain any positive control then?.. Nope..so the chances of them doing so now ..are extremely UNlikely.

AND ~ ..

***Maybe with time it will become easier. I hope so."***

"maybe" and "hope"?.................Where is the Positive?.. She's not positive she's going to act right .. otherwise she would have stressed it in a more positive manner.
Why not leave the "Maybe" out of it .. and instead saying "hope" say ~I will~.
She's setting herself up for failure.

What an assclown...........at best she may be working in a dry cleaners at some point.. if she doesn't follow all the way thru like Dana Plato.

Good luck snot nose brat ... you need it.

she will fuck up again. she now has years of probation. so when she is in trouble in the next few months, she will get a harsher sentence. a sentence like 2 days and five minutes.

Katie (#90), judging by the grammar alone, Lindsay had nothing to do with this statement. If she had actually written something herself it would probably just be the usual "i didndt due it guyz!!! believe me!!1" and then go off on a random tangent about ponies and how she also never fucked joaquin phoenix.

The reason the judge was able to give her so little time and the reason she will probably spend little or no time in jail is that the DA Steve Cooley reduced felony charges to misdemeanors. Since when is possession of cocaine a misdemeanor? And twice?

THAT is how celebrities get off.

You can only get out of jail early for overcrowding if your original sentence is less than 90 days. A felony charge carries a longer sentence than that. So they get chaged with misdemeanors, and then judges give them light sentences for serious crimes.
For instance actress Rebecca Gayheart pled guilty to misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter and got off with a fine.

The problem begins with the DA. Instead the media covers up for the DA and tries to blame the Sheriff who is following the law.

Everything here favors Hollywood. It's sick.

Karen is right. I don't actually blame the judge for this so much as the idiot district attorney for going along with the insane setllement offer proposed by Lohan's attorneys. I'm a prosecutor in Baltimore and it seriously pisses me off when I see other prosecutors pull this crap. No way would I or any of my colleagues EVER accept a plea deal like this one- especially for someone who committed back-to-back offfenses! I mean, they hadn't even gotten a chance to charge her for the original DUI before she went out and did it again for Christs sake! From what I've read, they had more than enough evidence to go forth with prosecuting her, but for some asinine reason, chose not to. That seems to be the trend in L.A. lately. I don't know what the hell the judges and attorneys have been drinking down there.

And #96 is right too. I feel like a "no contest" plea is even more of a kick in the face, because she's accepting the punishment without admitting guilt! She will never have to stand up and up in a courtroom and say "yes I'm guilty, I did everything I'm accused of." I agree that her "statement" seems a little too articulate, with correct spelling and semantics and everything, to have actually come from her. That has "PR" written all over it.

Okay, one last thing I have to comment on, I promise) I keep seeing various people commenting about how it's not fair that Lindsay had to serve only 1 day in jail while Paris had to spend several weeks in jail for "just driving on a suspended license." Alright guys, we need to get this straight! Paris did not "just" drive on a suspended license. That's not what got her jail time. She VIOLATED HER PROBATION. That's incredibly serious. So serious, in fact, that jail time is required for it. The judge in Paris' case was actually incredibly fair and could have given her alot more time to serve. Paris was actually pulled over several times for driving on a suspended license and it was only after about the 3rd or 4th time that the cops finally say, "enough is enough" and charged her with violating her probation. Paris wasn't "victimized" by the courts; she actually got off pretty light. Don't forget that she didn't originally get jail time for her DUI offense either. She violated the probationary terms of her DUI offense and THAT'S what earned her a trip to the pokey. While I agree that Linday's sentence is b.s., if she violates her probation like Paris did, I can assure you she'll wind up serving time also. Sorry if I sound preachy guys, but it's just driving me nuts that people (and I blame the media for their inaccurate reporting) keep misrepresenting what Paris did, thereby lessening the severity of her actions.

Can I sign up to be a visitor for the one day she's in the slammer. I will bring my phone, take pictures, get a blow job and then sell the photos.

Sounds like a good day for me.

@82 - this thread is probably dead by now, but I can't believe nobody posted the obvious comeback to your comment. One word: meth. An "epidemic" just as widespread, and just as violent as crack in the 80s, with meth addicts doing daily petty crimes and meth dealers fighting over the monster profits to be had. This big difference is that the meth scene is overwhelming white, not black. So, laws were written for meth to match the severity of the crack laws, right? Of course not. Don't be silly.

well fuck me black and blue...and I am NOT going to censor myself in these goddamn blogs anymore...cos I'm famous and no judge will convict me....

piss me a fucking river....

Whatever. She'll need to leave the party scene -- shit, leave L.A. -- for this to work. I don't think she has it in her.

somebody raise the bottom, for Christ's sake

I like their sentences.Idid LESS then that and can't drive untill 2010.
